Default Smoked Tail lights?

I've been looking for pictures of a black a3 3.2 with smoked tail lights, but i cant find any. Does anyone have a picture of one? Does it look cool, or should i not bother?

35% Thanks, as much as id like to go darker Im not up for the ticket. Two cops have brought my tint up but let me off the hook and im convinced it is because its not pushing it. When its darker outside it looks wayy darker r and depending on the lighting during the day its still pretty dark so ill live with it haha.

Thanks SOOO much fusionx, what a great car you have. Your pictures are definitely convincing enough that the A3 looks great with the tints. Im gonna have to grab the 35% as well, because it's definitely dark enough and "fix it" tickets suck a lot.

thanks again!

I love the look of these tailights. To my fellow northern friends.....are these illegal? If so, what can I get away with? I live in British Columbia. Thanks.

35% sounds good. Now the big question did you do them yourself or have them done?

I don't trust myself tinting a car hahaha. I had it done at a local tint shop.
For some reason my tint looks kinda green in pictures haha

Completly Understood. But sometimes I think I could do it then always chicken out and just pay for it.
